Description

Megadeth - Symphony Of Destruction.From their 1992 album double platinum selling album, Countdown To Extinction. The lyrics explores the hypothetical situation where an
average citizen
might be placed into a position where he can run the country while the public is
led like puppets by
a phantom government. Written by
vocalist and frontman Dave Mustaine, the song received significant
radio play and charted considerably well, making it one of Megadeth's best known songs.

The song was generally well received by critics,and its
accompanying music video by Wayne Isham initially
received heavy rotation on Mtv, but eventually
became controversial and was censored because of an assassination scene that
they felt was "too harsh", The video
features each band member individually playing, with a mostly black and white narrative revolving around a political candidate who is assissinated, and the massive
amount of anarchy and riots caused by the
event.
